Women are complex and ever-changing, physiologically speaking, which makes them difficult and expensive to study. As a result, women’s complexities are often ignored or dismissed in broader societal structures, excluding women from the same and equal opportunities as their male counterparts. Kayla’s work embraces and celebrates the complex biological, hormonal, emotional, cognitive, and physiological cycles of women to break barriers to inclusion.
Despite advancements in gender equality, women continue to face systemic barriers and unequal representation. Kayla recognizes these challenges and is committed to promoting change through innovative educational initiatives and impactful women-forward interventions. She believes in a future where gender equality becomes a reality, leading to enhanced social, economic, and cultural progress.
Kayla’s work bridges the science, policy, and economic sectors to create more inclusive, equitable, and sustainable policies for women, and ultimately all of humanity. She is a female scientist, women’s policy advocate, conscious economy visionary, and the founder and CEO of Her Biorhythm - an organization dedicated to closing gender gaps in research, education, and business through the practice of good, inclusive science.
Using a multifaceted approach, Kayla’s work aims to address gender gaps, empower individual expression, promote collective contribution, and advance society forward. To this end, she has worked with multi-sectoral, international leaders, including WHO, CDC, Universities, Global Ministries of Health, and Conscious Economics to advocate for women’s equity in health, economy, and research. She also works privately with policy makers and large international corporations to educate, design, and implement evidence-based policies, systems, and structures that foster inclusivity, drive diversity, and close the gender divide.

Female Biology and Health Education: With the unique female biology and biological rhythm as the foundation, Kayla actively advocates for gender equality in health education to eliminate gender biases and stereotypes. She offers education across the field of women’s health science, including female-specific physiology, neuropsychology, and endocrinology. She also partners with educational institutions to develop female-centered health curricula, provide a variety of accessible online and in-person programs, and establish scholarships to support women in their educational journeys.
